A ROOKIE COP FROM THE HEAVENS
What nice weather.
Today's going to be a good day...
Wait. It's too quiet.
That can only mean...
Ryotsu must be late again!
Nope.
Hmm?
What? Ryotsu is working?!
He came in two hours early and has been hard at work ever since.
We were just saying it must be some kind of omen.
Eh?
This is incredible.
In my 30 years as a police officer,
I've never been happier!
Here you are, Chief.
But is it that incredible?
Yes. Ryotsu has finally started taking his work seriously.
All my efforts have paid off.
All right! I'm done!
Well done, Ryotsu! I knew you'd turn over a new leaf eventually.
By the way, what forms were you writing?
What? Did you forget, Chief?
These are the written apologies you ordered me to submit yesterday.
W-Written apologies?
I finished all of them.
Huh? What happened to the massage...?
You idiot!
You blockhead!
Chief! Are you okay?
-Sorry. Get me my pills... -Of course.
You're taking too many, Chief.
You should be careful with those at your age.
What did you say?!
It's your fault that I need them!
Chief, please calm down.
You'll burst a blood vessel.
I give up. I guess I'll just have to put up with this useless idiot.
Anyway, never mind him, has Nakagawa arrived yet?
Nakagawa-san?
He's supposed to be joining our team from today.
What's he like?
Wow. He's quite a handsome guy.
He lived in New York until he was 16.
So he grew up overseas, just like you, Reiko-san.
Yeah.
He has an advanced driving license, and can sail boats and fly planes as well.
He's a great sportsman and speaks foreign languages too.
And he can shoot the head off a needle from a kilometer away.
He sounds amazing.
He's the heir to the Nakagawa Corporation.
The Nakagawa Corporation?!
That's one of the biggest companies in the world.
That's right.
What's this Nakagawa thing you're talking about?
It's a corporation. A big company.
Oh, no big deal then.
Huh? Were you listening?
Reiko, don't waste your time on this fool.
You'll end up with stomach problems like me.
Okay, Chief.
There's no way some spoiled rich kid can make a decent cop.
He'll give up straight away and run off.
If that's what you think, I'm making you responsible for training him!
What?
Now's my chance.
Pretty awesome, huh?
It's a combat rescue helicopter used by the US military.
You're unbelievable.
You skipped work yesterday to make this, didn't you?
Well, yeah.
The chief'll definitely burst something if he hears about this.
Now then...
That's odd...
Where's the remote control?
Why is your locker in such a state?
Ah! I remember!
When did you make that secret compartment?
Oh, you didn't know about it?
This is supposed to be a police station...
Easy does it...
Ready to fly?
Good boy!
This contraption is quite well made.
If only he took his police work this seriously.
I always work hard.
Sorry about that!
Ryo-chan!
Ryo-san?
What's all this noise?
Are you okay?
I thought I was done for.
Where's the helicopter?
Helicopter?
It flew away.
Argh! That cost me 30,000 yen!
If I need a replacement, you're paying!
No way! You're the one in the wrong.
Damn! Where did it fly off to?
Hey, another helicopter.
It brought a friend back with it.
Why you! How dare you destroy my helicopter!
What's going on?
A helicopter's coming our way!
What?
What's that?
Who the heck is it?
He's got a bazooka!
Yahoo!
Sorry I'm late, everyone.
Officer Keiichi Nakagawa reporting for duty.
I look forward to working with you.
You jerk! You destroyed my helicopter!
That's a Walther MPL submachine gun!
You recognize it? I'm glad.
I've got this pistol too.
Whoa, it's the same gun that Dirty Harry uses!
That was a great movie, wasn't it?
Perhaps you'd accept it as compensation for your helicopter?
You serious? I'll take it!
It's fine, really. I have plenty more at home.
You should come sometime.
I will!
You idiot!
What in the world are you thinking?
I'm confiscating those!
Is this not allowed either?
Of course not...
Terai, you confiscate the rest.
Yes, Chief!
My stomach is playing up again...
Reiko, please take over for today. I'm going to the doctor.
There's a lot to like about you.
I'm Ryotsu! Nice to meet you!
Oh, you're Ryotsu-san? I've heard so much about you!
It's very nice to meet you.
I guess we've got two naughty kids now.
You don't seem too upset about it...
That helicopter was your own, huh?
I thought you weren't a big deal.
A big deal?
Never mind. What made you want to be a police officer?
Well, you see...
When I lived in New York, there was a lot of crime.
I always looked up to the police officers
who risked their lives to protect the public.
So, what's with the flashy uniform?
Huh?
Yeah. That seems like more of a problem than the guns.
Is it?
The Japanese police uniform isn't very stylish.
So I had one tailor-made for me by Armani.
It cost about a million yen.
A million yen?!
You could have just worn a normal one for free!
Look who's talking. You spent 30,000 yen on an RC helicopter.
That's different.
Sure it is.
Anyway, the higher-ups at HQ must have softened up if they let you wear that.
Actually, they said I couldn't. But I changed clothes in the helicopter.
That's dedication!
I understand how the chief feels...
I'm going out on patrol.
Ryo-chan, make sure you show Nakagawa-san the ropes.
See you later!
So, what do you want me to do?
Terai, you teach him.
You're the one in charge of that! I'm going out on patrol too.
Hey!
Sheesh. I have to do everything.
Um... what about me?
Stand outside and help people if they're lost.
Yes, sir!
Excuse me, are you a police officer?
I am.
Oh, good. Would you mind helping me find my way?
Of course.
"KAMEARI PARK POLICE STATION"
Sir, please wake up.
What is it? I was having a nice nap.
A man asked me for directions, but I don't know the area well.
Use that.
Huh?
Tell him to find his own way on that map.
But it's an old man who hasn't lived here in 50 years.
He says he's already totally lost.
All right, fine.
So, where are you wanting to go?
It's a restaurant.
And what's it called?
I'm afraid I've forgotten the name. But I do have a picture.
Huh?
This is it.
That's a pretty bad drawing. Did you draw it?
Yes, when I was a student. That's over 50 years ago now.
Over 50 years ago?
Do you have the address?
I only know it was somewhere in downtown Tokyo.
-That's all? -I'm afraid so.
That's no good. The downtown area is enormous.
We'll never find it. You should give up.
We have to help him. It's my first job as a police officer!
Do as you like.
If you help me find it, I'll give you a reward.
Why didn't you say so sooner?
Let's discuss this in the back room.
Hey, Nakagawa, go get us some coffee and cake.
-What? -Just do it. Quickly!
Yes, sir.
I see. So, you used to go there often when you were attending the art school.
Which art school?
Tokyo University of the Arts. That restaurant was a popular lunch spot.
So it must be near the school, right?
If I remember correctly, it was about 15 minutes away on foot.
Tokyo University of the Arts is in the Ueno district.
You can have mine too.
Thanks!
Let's start by checking the Yanaka and Nezu areas.
Excuse me, will we be able to find it in the next two hours?
It's about 20 or 30 minutes to Ueno by car, so yeah, probably.
I have to catch a plane from Narita to Paris at one o'clock.
Hmm, it's a one-hour train ride to the airport from Ueno.
Nakagawa, hail a taxi.
I'll ring for my car instead.
Yes, it's me. Send the car to the police station right away.
Would you like to have my piece too?
With pleasure!
Ah, it's here.
Whoa, that's a Ferrari F40, isn't it?
As requested, sir.
But isn't this a two-seater?
It had it modified into a four-seater, so it'll be fine.
Get in please, everyone.
Reiko, great timing!
-Ryo-chan? -Watch the station while we help this man.
Huh?
See you later!
Hey!
I've seen that man somewhere before...
Darn it. We don't have time for this.
Hey, Nakagawa, take that turn.
Sir, I can't. It's a one-way street.
You idiot! Don't you want to help this guy?
-It's okay... -Reverse up the street. Then it's fine.
What?
Understood, sir. I'm going in backward.
You didn't need to take things this far.
You maniac!
I can't look.
It's Kankichi Ryotsu!
That's a one-way street!
It must be nice to drive around in a classy sports car like that.
Stop being impressed! We need to arrest him!
Stop that Ferrari!
Sir, what should we do?
This is an emergency. Just ignore them.
Show them what this car can really do!
Roger that!
It's so fast.
Damn that Kankichi Ryotsu!
We'll get him for sure next time!
Okay, take a right there.
Turn left at the end.
How come you know your way around so well?
I played here all the time as a kid. It's like my own backyard.
Even if it's shortcut, the car won't fit.
Idiot! This is your first assignment.
And a real police officer never gives up on an assignment.
Sorry, sir. I was wrong.
Let's go!
It looks even narrower up ahead!
Don't worry. We'll make it through!
I've been down here before, on my bicycle.
See, we made it.
You were right!
Could you stop here for a moment?
I have great memories of this school.
I've lived in Paris for decades now,
but lately I've been thinking about Japan a lot.
I often remember my days as a young art student here.
I used to draw all day, surrounded by good friends.
Ueno truly was like a forest of art.
We used to go to galleries every day and talk about art.
One day, a friend took me to a restaurant and a girl who worked there
captured my heart.
She was my first love.
And that's the restaurant in the picture, isn't it?
How long ago it was...
Just before I was about to graduate, I was laid up with a terrible cold.
She came to the boarding house
and nursed me back to health.
After I recovered, I wanted to do something to thank her.
But I couldn't afford to buy her a nice gift.
So I painted a portrait of her
and gave her that instead.
The smile on her face when she saw it
is deeply engraved in my memory to this day.
And then what happened, sir?
Immediately after graduating, I moved to Paris to continue my studies.
I never even told her how I felt.
But it was long ago now.
Gramps, there's no time for reminiscing!
We barely have an hour left!
Let's find that restaurant.
Yes.
How about here, old man? Does anything look familiar?
I guess a lot must have changed in 50 years.
One hour left.
We're not going to find it.
I suppose I'll just take my memories back to Paris with me.
We still have 10 minutes! I won't give up!
We have to find it.
How can I call myself a cop
if I can't even find a restaurant!
Damn it. Where is it!
I wish we could have reunited you
with the first love you've held in your heart for 50 years.
It's okay. This is what fate has decided.
Hmm?
Those trees...
I found it!
Look, there it is! It's just like in the picture.
It hasn't changed at all.
So, let's go meet your first love.
W-Wait a minute.
What's wrong, old man?
After so many years, she must be married with a family.
It might be wrong to turn up out of the blue.
Don't say that! We went through a lot to find it!
Go inside.
But...
If you don't open the door, I will.
Go on...
Open it. Come on, hurry up!
Mizue-san...
Taki-san. You're Taki-san, aren't you?
Yes.
After so many years!
Yes, too many.
I still have that painting you gave me up on the wall.
Really?
You've taken such good care of it.
Of course. I'll always treasure it.
Thank you so much, Mizue-san.
Sir, look how happy they are.
Yes, it's part of a police officer's job to bring smiles to the public's faces.
This is a wonderful job, isn't it?
Yes, and I wonder how much money the old man'll give me as a reward
S-Sir...
Thanks to you, I was able to make a new precious memory.
Please accept this in return.
Thanks so much.
Well then, I'll be off. Thank you for everything.
Sure, take care.
Goodbye.
Let's get going, shall we?
Another painting?
I couldn't be less happy.
Who'd want a crappy painting like this?
-Hey, kid. -Huh?
You can have this.
Are you sure? It was a gift.
It's fine. Come on, let's go.
Jotaro Taki!
All we got is a few dents in your Ferrari.
Don't worry about it.
I have plenty of other cars back at home.
You're that rich, huh?
I suppose so. Our assets add up to about 400 billion yen.
400 billion?
Nakagawa-kun, let's be buddies!
Ryo-chan, this is serious.
You know that old man you had in the Ferrari?
That shabby old guy?
Don't be silly.
He's a world-famous painter. Look.
That certainly does look like him.
He's really that famous, huh?
Each of his paintings sell for at least 100 million yen.
A 100 million!
Oh no!
Damn it, Ryotsu!
You can shout at me as much as you want later!
My 100 million yen!
